Considering the political leanings of most educators, they'll probably be taught it was a bioweapon that Trump unleashed on innocent China.

Yeah in a long enough timescale it will be taught the same way we teach about the Tulip Mania, and children will wonder how it all happened. And they'll probably apply that learning about as well as we apply the lessons learned from Tulip Mania, which is to say not at all.

Better this year now that they increased our daily fresh air ration from 15 minutes to 10.

Now that it looks like COVID will be endemic, with multiple mutations in the main strain already confirmed, the lockdowns are going to be a fucking embarrassment.

For future generations, COVID is just going to be something they are going to have to just deal with, like the flu. They'll offer a vaccine every year covering the most likely strains, but it'll by no means completely protect you completely , and if you get it, you're in for a week or two of feeling like shit. Like the flu, if you are immunocompromised, you are especially vulnerable to COVID, and like the flu, if you are genetically predisposed to autoimmune disorders but otherwise completely healthy, the shock to your immune system has a very real possibility opening you up to developing an autoimmune disease within 5 years after infection. For everyone else, COVID will just be a inconvenience, again like the flu.

10+ years from now, how will you explain to children who were born and or raised after the lockdown about it?

It'll still be going on. Good news is there won't be many children to explain it to.

The more this goes on the more it looks like one big obedience test from the elite. A way to gauge how submissive and easily propagandized most westerners are.

Look up Teapot Dome, and ask how much of it was taught in US schools. That will be all of this in one hundred years.

I think it depends on who wins.

Optimistically as retarded, pessinistically as a test case for those in power to tighten oppression and use an army of de-individualized white women as their everpresent enforcers

Textbooks will talk about it being a Trump administration failure that Biden magic wanded away (even though there will be almost no difference in COVID policy) which they'll use some weird unconventional logic to explain (or won't explain at all) similar to some bullshit like "drastic improvements under the Biden administration" which is vague and non-specific. Then, all the "uptight parents" and "crotchety old men" will rightfully tell their kids that it was a Kafka trap of xenophobia/incompetence that the media to set up to make Trump always the bad guy in a situation that he had no fault in starting and a minority of direct power in fixing.

It depends. If it's actually meant to introduce injectable birth control to Asia and Africa, it'll be cheered by anyone with a brain who likes breathing room, nature, and having other species exist.

Unfortunately, the Chinese were never into birth control; the whole one-child thing was a scam to hide their demographic-riggering, male-only, army-building tomfuckery, so unfortunately, I don't think it will be the birth control and wildlife management the fucking wogs so desperately need.

Otherwise, it's probably going to go down in history as another "Cry Wolf!" event that took everyone's attention off of something more important that we can't see right now.

It will show that Americans are too weak minded and too selfish
